The way his muscles flex when he reaches for something...

Kyle actively trying *not* to stare.
Failing.
Miserably.

Book Reviews are the lifeblood of independent authors and it doesn’t take that long.

Thank you on behalf of all the self-published authors worldwide.

This is just a summer. A reset. A way to escape Peoria.
But Kyle’s journal is already filling up with:

Conner’s back muscles when he reaches for the coffee.
The scent of his cologne on the pillow.
How Harris can see through his cover.

#MMRomance #QueerWriters #Booksky

A watercolor image of a shirtless man in his early twenties leaning up against a brick wall in the late afternoon. The city behind him as he flexes his abs to pose. He has his right hand in the pocket of his low jeans.

Then there’s Conner.
He has to emerge from the shower dripping water, like he knows Kyle's brain resets at the sight of his abs.
Then he tosses Kyle a rugby shirt; the one that smells of Conner’s cologne.

Know anyone hiring?
That's how Kyle ended up in basement apartment that smells like takeout and Conner’s body spray.
He's surrounded by boxes of memories he tried to bury and sleeping on a couch that was Mark and Mike's first purchase as a couple.
